Beautiful shots. I particularly love the "scarecrow" one. Sometimes I imagine you never drive past strip malls, but instead spend your whole life in this place that is stuck in time like Cuba. Magical :)

Your photography, your stories, you self -- all have been missed and it is truly wonderful to see you back here. My heart goes out to you on your loss of Jack; we had to put my little dog, Biscuit, down and I still think of him every day. I hope all the momentous change brings you all the lovely things you deserve....
